I would give it a 5 star if everything was open, but COVID-19 has half of this place on lock down. Got to see 2 dwellings up close, and could see one cave dwelling from the observation deck. This place makes me miss watching the Flintstones! It is so beautiful!
One of my favorite museums ever! It is fast to go through and VERY educational, they get right to the point and have so many hands on things for you to feel, hold, watch, etc.
This "stop" was a let down. Are there are 2 colorado rivers? Yes. Is the one in Arizona the correct one to see the milky blue water at? Yes. However, there are also TWO little colorado rivers and only ONE has the milky blue water and it is NOT this one. The milky blue water is only available AFTER the gorge at the Grand Canyon and you can ONLY see it by going onto the indian reservation through the village of Supai which requires a 10 mile hike, a helicopter ride, or horse back riding to get to. It is available to swim in and explore, but you have to be a reserved camper only!
This was my favorite park so far because it is ALL driveable! There are a handful of walking trails, but you don't have to take them to see the beauty, at the south end you can see some of the petrified trees up close, too!
This was a super cool stop! The road is insanely rough, you feel like you aren't even supposed to be back here- BUT to lookup the history online of this bridge and know how old it is and how much it cost (in 2020 the bid they paid for equates to just over $175k)!
This place looked too sketchy to me,but I REALLY enjoyed the Tee Pee Trading Post that is just east of it, same exit just turn right and you cant miss the HUGE tee pee which makes for a great photo opp as well!
I'm not sure why old reviews say it is small, it isn't worth it, or that it is a welcome sign- all 3 are wrong! It is HUGE see my picture where I couldn't even upload the full statue in this picture AND get me standing next to it, it is GIGANTIC and I had no problem taking a picture with it! Such a cool photo opp stop that is directly off 40 (historic route 66)!
4 stars because this specific store was closed, but the address still took me to the location and I was able to get a photo opp in and shop at another nearby store
Such a cool adventure, please note this address/navigation takes you to the site that is wheelchair accessible, costs $1 on weekdays and $2 on weekends and is NOT dog friendly. We went about 9 minutes further to Piedras Marcadas and had a great 1.5 mile hike. Google maps are wrong, they take you to a dead end- the parking lot and entrance is behind the Valvoline Instant Oil Change.
This place is SO awesome! The Jackelope is a great photo opp, it is fenced in because its data business (hours are 9a-5p) and you HAVE to go inside! It's a mercado, so different vendors who all have handmade items from all over the world (mainly South America). I HIGHLY recommend going out of your way for this great photo opp and souvenir stop!
